@maxrushden @barneyronay genuine question - could relegation bankrupt Tottenham / put them into receivership / unable to trade while insolvent etc? And what would happen then? It’s funny bantersphere stuff for sure but how apocalyptic are we talking? I don’t want them destroyed!

@acccgovau Can this be an ok use of market power? Uber makes me pay in advance, then I have to wait 6 mins just to be connected to a driver, then 13 mins for a car?And I can’t cancel when a taxi rolls up and offers me a lift because uber makes me pay up front?How can this be ok?

@PodSaveAmerica⁩ in other democracies - esp. Westminster system - there is cabinet solidarity. Once a decision is made (generally collectively) ministers sing from the same hymn sheet, regardless of personal views. Is there no sense of this in US? podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/pod…

@harvilla @harvilla Also, it’s quite daunting trying to educate your kids into a cultural canon 3 generations deep!! How do you cover the breadth? Where do you choose to go deep? What do you ignore? So many impossible choices, like choosing between your kids!!!

@harvilla At 4, my son had the same favourite song as his nana: I’m still standing. Whereas nana’s mum loved Hit the road jack🥱 I wonder how long this dynamic will last? When will music change again so fundamentally that grandma and grandson don’t speak the same language? 2/3

There’s something in this @harvilla. “Intro, verse, pre-chorus, chorus, second verse, pre-chorus, chorus, bridge, guitar, solo, last chorus, and you're out. That's been it, basically, for like seventy-five years.” 1/2

@NStaikos @REIVictoria this is great. Also, some developers offer side incentives that lower the effective but not actual price, so they can ‘maintain the value’ of a building/estate. We need reporting of effective prices (and punishments for misleading) theage.com.au/national/victo…

@bbc5live #MNC the source of spurs’ predicament is that they pissed the Harry Kane cash up against the wall. Their list it useless

@maxrushden lots of political podcasts coming out today asking whether trump will invade Iran - with NO VOICE NOTES! Appalling behaviour, they could learn a thing or two from the Football Weekly!!

@Uber_Support @uber It’s your consumer-hating business model that’s the problem, not the specifics of my trip. Stop making people pay in advance

@newstart_2024 Purpose and struggle aren’t the same thing. Public service is my purpose and it’s inherently meaningfully. Struggle is optional

Richard Nixon's brutal truth on happiness that hits harder in 2026: "The unhappiest people in the world are those in the watering places—south coast of France, Newport, Palm Springs, Palm Beach—parties every night, golf every afternoon, bridge, too much drinking, too much talking, too little thinking. Retired, no purpose." He saw it decades ago: Endless leisure without struggle isn't paradise—it's a slow death of meaning. "What makes life mean something is purpose, a goal, the battle, the struggle—even if you don't win it." In an age of quiet quitting, early retirement dreams, and infinite scrolling... Nixon reminds us: The fight is what keeps the soul alive. What keeps you in the "battle" right now—even when it's exhausting?

@RorySmith @markchapman @chris_sutton73 @No1shaygiven re:Szobo red card, can have common sense (play advantage to meet purpose of law, if not letter) and still deter the last defender foul, if premier league could penalise Szobo retrospectively, like other sports egAussie rules
